Gundam UC Hunting Time

He suddenly remembered Elmes—that Newtype-specific machine was large enough to be equipped with a much larger optical detection system. If a battle broke out, how could he defend against a long-range attack from beyond the detection range?

While the beam spray guns equipped with the wire barrel cannon possess formidable firepower, their range and power are inferior to the beam cannons mounted on Elmes's BIT. Furthermore, the attack range of wired and wireless equipment differs significantly. Therefore, if he were to encounter Elmes, he would likely find himself in a one-sided defensive position—unless the opposing pilot was not the inexperienced Lara, but a cunning and experienced opponent like Char.

This demonstrates that the Psycommu system does indeed have its unique features.

As for Lala… Char only ever used her as a tool for revenge from the beginning, and only regretted it after she died. But Lala may not have been unaware of this; perhaps she was just deceiving herself—the root of the problem was probably that kiss.

Therefore, Lin Xingyuan believed that her death was not worthy of sympathy—after all, only those who were prepared to be killed had the right to pull the trigger.

After putting himself in her shoes, he realized that if he encountered a lesbian, he probably wouldn't hold back either.

But if it really comes to that, Char and Amuro will probably hate themselves to death.

Ultimately, the most despicable one is Char, who specializes in deceiving young girls. He constantly shouts about finding a "loli mommy," but then turns around and pushes her to her death.

Seeing Lin Xingyuan staring blankly at the screen and not responding for a while, Lei couldn't help but ask again:

"team leader?"

Lin Xingyuan then came to his senses: "Hmm? Oh... I don't think so..."

Actually, he secretly hoped the Musai ship would catch up, and it would be even better if Char was inside; he would definitely have to give this dangerous loli, this fetishist, a proper treatment. But if it really was Char, the Musai ship would most likely not catch up.

The RX-79E used its inertia to sail towards Luna 2, but even after entering the base's absolute air defense zone, it still hadn't seen the Musai. At this point, Lin Xingyuan was completely certain that the Musai was Char's Farme.

After going around in circles, Char still went after the White Base. Perhaps it was fate's arrangement; this little butterfly couldn't be moved at all.

But he wasn't in a hurry—the White Base would arrive at Luna 2 soon, and then… hehehe…

"They really couldn't catch up..."

Seeing the result confirmed, Shirley was filled with amazement. She turned to look at Lin Xingyuan, her tone full of admiration, "As expected of a new human."

"..."

Lin Xingyuan didn't reply, but Shirley perked up, blinking her eyes as she stared at his profile and excitedly asked:

"Captain, Captain, do you think I have the qualifications to become a New Human?"

"No." Lin Xingyuan denied it decisively and directly.

"Huh? Why?"

"Because you're not the main character, you're just cannon fodder."

"Huh? Why?! I'm amazing!" Shirley Paige had every right to be proud and was very unconvinced.

"They're just powerful cannon fodder. Listen to me, if you want to live to be a hundred, stay away from those new humans in the future."

"How could this happen..."

Six moving points of light flew towards Luna 2 from the direction of Luna 2. The AI ​​automatically captured and zoomed in, displaying them on the screen. They were RGM-79E, the first mass-produced GM manufactured by Luna 2. Then the communicator beeped, and when it was opened, Jung and Sandas's faces appeared on the small screen.

"Lin, welcome back!"

"It's good that you're here. The Zeon army is in trouble now!"

On September 15, UC0079, Black Reaper returned to his loyal Luna 2.

……

……

Please support me.

Chapter 162 The Moon Goddess No. 2 Before Battle

Having not seen each other for a long time, Jung and Sandas had a lot to say to Lin Xingyuan, but due to the frequent activities of the Zeon fleet in the vicinity, they only had time for a few pleasantries before hurriedly returning to their posts to carry out reconnaissance and surveillance missions. Lin Xingyuan piloted his aircraft alone into the Luna 2. Sherry looked at the empty port area with a face full of surprise:

"What happened? Where did all the ships go?"

The dock of the Federal Space Force headquarters should not be in such a desolate state.

"They've probably gone on patrol duty."

Just as Lin Xingyuan finished making his guess, the port command center issued an order to enter the port. The lights turned on simultaneously to guide him to land, and the communication also relayed the headquarters' order: he was required to go to the command center immediately after landing.

The tension of an impending storm spread along the communication lines, but the landing of the RX-79E still received enthusiastic attention from the staff stationed in the parking area.

"Wow... this is the new type of MS?"

"He's way more handsome than Zaku and Zani!"

"Why is it painted black?"

"Could it be... Captain Lin is back!?"

The staff members discussed in surprise. Since Lin Xingyuan's return was classified, they did not know the identity of the new aircraft pilot. Only the maintenance crew members who were familiar with the paint scheme subconsciously looked at Mei, who was standing outside the crowd.

Mei was also looking at the new machine, a faint smile unconsciously appearing on her lips.

As if by telepathy, Lin Xingyuan spotted Mei in the crowd from the cockpit of the RX-79E, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

"Hmm? That's..." Shirley, observing the situation, keenly noticed this and couldn't suppress her curiosity as she asked, "Your lover?"

No, that's not true.

Lin Xingyuan denied it outright, but Shirley was still skeptical and pressed, "So that's your ex-girlfriend?"

"No, not really. Tsk, when did you become so fond of gossip?"

Lin Xingyuan glared at her.

Shirley Page wanted to explain that she had been acting innocent because she was shy, but seeing Lin Xingyuan's stern face, she immediately made a gesture of tightening a zipper over her mouth. However, she was quiet for only a few seconds before seeing the neatly arranged RGM-79E aircraft in the hangar, and she couldn't help but exclaim again:

"Oh, so that's the Luna-type GM? It's much more spirited than the Ground GM. I wonder which one we'll be assigned to. Wait, why is the main camera monocular, just like the Zeon MS?"

Lin Xingyuan ignored her, maneuvered the RX-79E to the designated position, opened the hatch and boarded the aircraft. As soon as he took off his helmet and revealed his face, cheers immediately rang out in the hangar—his return was like a shot in the arm, both calming people's hearts and boosting morale.

"They're really popular."

Shirley Page sighed enviously as she also stepped out of the cockpit. Her appearance drew cheers—she was quite famous in the Federation's promotional videos as Black Reaper's subordinate, and her clever and cute looks made her quite popular. In contrast, Ray seemed rather unknown. However, upon seeing his face, many female pilots and soldiers were instantly captivated—for example, Bianca Carlisle, the female pilot who liked to tattoo her unit insignia, held her hands to her heart, her eyes sparkling.

Wow... is he an angel?

As for Lin Xingyuan—get away from me, don't stop me from seeing the handsome young man!

Of course, most people's attention was still focused on Lin Xingyuan. For example, Io Fleming, who had rushed over as soon as he heard the news, pushed through the crowd surrounding Lin Xingyuan, his face full of excitement. But thinking of his subordinates behind him, he immediately put on the composure of a captain, pretending to be experienced as he stepped forward and bumped fists with Lin Xingyuan:

"Long time no see, Captain, no, Major."

"Hmm? Oh, you've become the team leader?"

Lin Xingyuan looked at the young man following behind Yi Ou, whose face practically screamed "newbie," and teased him with a smile.

"I didn't want to either, but there are too few experienced people, and you weren't around, so I became the team leader without really knowing what it was like."

Io couldn't keep up the act any longer, scratched his head, and looked embarrassed.

"Then good luck."

After greeting his familiar friends, Lin Xingyuan walked up to Mei, looked at her, and smiled broadly.

"Long time no see, Sergeant Mei."

"He's already a lieutenant!"

Mei looked at him, lowered her salute, crossed her arms, and a hint of arrogance appeared on her usually intellectual face.

"Oh? I made a mistake. It's been a long time, Lieutenant Mei."

"so what?"

"At least give me a hug, right?" Lin Xingyuan opened his arms.

"Is this the commander's order?"

Mei glanced at the gleaming major's epaulettes on Lin Xingyuan's shoulder.

"No, it's out of consideration for our friendship, to avoid embarrassing me."

"Stop dawdling, headquarters is urging you."

Despite saying that, Mei still stepped forward and gently hugged Lin Xingyuan, her face showing a helpless expression of "I can't do anything with you".

Only then did Lin Xingyuan truly feel as if he had returned to Luna 2. He immediately dropped his joking expression and said seriously:

"Mei, I would like to ask you to continue serving as my machine's maintenance technician. Also, this is the RGM-79E technical data that Gabro asked me to pass on; please give it to the technical department. Oh, and those two are my subordinates; please take care of them."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Xingyuan's figure had already drifted away, leaving Shirley Page and Ray surrounded by staff members asking them all sorts of questions.

Inside the Luna 2 command center, everyone's expression was even more grave than outside. Acting Commander Wakham was anxious and couldn't sit still, constantly watching the Zeon fleet's movements on the large screen. Seeing Lin Xingyuan enter, he couldn't hide his joy.

"Lin, you've worked hard, you've come at the perfect time!"

"commander!"

Lin Xingyuan stood with his legs together, straightened his body, and saluted solemnly.

Hua Ken smiled and waved his hand: "Don't be so formal. I'm just the acting commander, someone who looks after houses when the important people aren't around. Besides, you're a major now, my equal."

"You will always be my superior."

Lin Xingyuan's words of kindness were so natural and sincere that they warmed Hua Ken's heart, and he immediately labeled Lin Xingyuan as "one of his own" in his mind.

"Let's not talk about that. You saw it when you came, right? The Zeon fleet is assembling. According to my estimate, they will launch an attack here in a few hours."

Hua Ken turned to the large screen and briefed Lin Xingyuan on the current situation.

"Where is our fleet?" Lin Xingyuan asked.

"They're all on guerrilla and mine-laying missions and can't get back immediately."

Hua Ken's brow was furrowed with gloom, clearly indicating that being the acting commander was by no means an easy task.

"Oh."

Lin Xingyuan suddenly realized why the Luna 2 was deserted when the White Base arrived in the original story. He looked up at the big screen, carefully examining the composition of the Zeon fleet, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise: "There are a lot of transport ships."

"That's right. According to the reconnaissance, the other side is Zeon's Assault Mobile Force, which is Kycilia Zabi's unit. They are known for their flexible use of mobile suits. Those transport ships are probably carrying mobile suits and infantry."

"So, they want to launch a landing operation?"

A notification popped up in Lin Xingyuan's field of vision, indicating that the main enemy force this time was the Marine Corps.

"Hmm?" Wakham paused, then immediately thought of a possibility: "Could it have been lured here by that surrendered Zeon warship?"

Lin Xingyuan continued, "That's possible. After all, the people on that ship participated in the gas attack on Iphishu Island and the British campaign. Kycilia obviously didn't want them to live to testify against her after the war."

"Tch... Damn Zeon!"

Hua Ken cursed, then turned to Lin Xingyuan and said seriously, "Lin, I want to temporarily put all the mobile units under your command. What do you think? Can you handle it?"

"But I've never taken a command course."

"It's alright, I've never been a commander either."

Lin Xingyuan stood at attention and saluted: "Alright, I will do my best and not let you down."

Chapter 163 The Counterattack of the Battleship Party (Bonus Chapter on Weekend)

Upon receiving the appointment, Lin Xingyuan quickly inspected the mobile forces at Luna 2 Base, and the results left him with mixed feelings.

On the positive side, the mobile forces currently stationed on Luna 2 are limited in size, with only 6 squads of mobile suits totaling 18 units, and only two battalions of special-purpose iron balls totaling 42 units, which is well within his command capabilities.

The downside is precisely its limited scale—half of the MS are Zani! Even with the addition of 42 special iron balls, their overall combat power might not be comparable to the Zeon army.

"Are there no more MS at the factory?"

Lin Xingyuan frowned, feeling that this burden was much heavier than he had expected.

"Perhaps there are still some, but as you know, our raw material supplies have always been very tight—"

The staff officer in charge of assisting Lin Xingyuan was an office worker, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat whenever he saw Lin Xingyuan frown.

"Alright, that's enough. Let's go check out the factory first."

With such a disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves, every additional MS increases our chances of victory—leaving aside Sherry for the moment, Ray's strength is at least equivalent to two squads, and Lin Xingyuan needs such an ace to stabilize the battle.

He rushed to the factory, only to be stunned by a colossal object as soon as he entered: in the workshop where sparks flew, a giant weapon was being rushed to completion, taking up almost half of the factory building.

"What the hell is that?!"

He blinked, thinking he'd wandered into the set of a heavy weapons movie by mistake, and the barrage of comments in his field of vision exploded instantly:
